  UK Shaolin Southampton is hands down one of the most authentic and grounding training environments I’ve experienced. The Sanda classes are tough, disciplined, and purposeful — not just about fighting, but about developing control, resilience, and respect. Every session pushes you physically while also demanding focus and presence. You leave knowing you’ve earned the training. What really sets it apart is the depth behind the practice. It’s not ego-led, not rushed, and not watered down. The coaching is precise, encouraging, and rooted in real understanding of both the body and the mind. You’re challenged, supported, and held to a high standard at the same time. If you’re looking for something more than a generic martial arts class — something that builds strength, confidence, and discipline from the inside out — this is the place. Highly recommend for anyone serious about growth, whether you’re a beginner or experienced.

  Growth improvement confidence My review for UK shaolin UK shaolin is amazing first step to growth, if your thinking of self improvement,self confidence, wellbeing, growth in martial arts. This is the one to do and UK shaolin team is lovely and I have been speaking to one of the teams shout out to Janine haha. But yeah trust me you will love it and in the future it's good for health and good in old age it will help I will explain this in my self review Which I will write now hahaha. For me I have done martial arts in the past like judo karate wrestling. But what I love about shaolin Kung Fu it hits every part in your body. I remember doing Ma Bu, Gong Bu, Xu Bu, I feel every part of my legs and bones worked out like if I have been kicked by Bruce lee or Michael jay white or Chuck Norris hahah. But as I have been doing it daily I feel good. Because the reason why I am doing this 1 because of my family oath brothers, 2 for health 3 for the future of old age when the time comes hahah 4 my oath brother's. I am so glad I have been doing this and your body has rights over you. It is a blessing from God if you don't take care of it it will bear witness against you so take care of your body and health and never give up even if you lost everything. But don't lose your health. Health is wealth". So yeah that's my review. Big shout out Shifu, the team. I look forward to seeing you one day. Thank you for everything you guys are amazing in promoting Kung Fu, martial arts, shaolin, Chinese culture, wellbeing. You guys are amazing 5 stars for all of you. 加油加油

  I am very happy working out here. The kung fu classes manage to be both fun and challenging, and there's a good range of difficulty levels matched to the instructors (all of which are excellent). I trained when I was a younger, and over the years considered picking up kung fu training again, but never found a school that I enjoyed. The fact that I am happy here, speaks volumes.

  Absolutely love coming to the Shaolin centre. The level of skill and wisdom of the staff is simply another level. And their friendliness is super genuine. If you want to truly master your human experience, mentally, physically, emotionally and learn some really really cool, non-western martial arts, come to the Shaolin Centre. You’ll find more happiness, energy, calmness, strength (and even friendships) than you could possibly expect! Love they have holistic services too…proper balanced mix of Yin and Yang with the classes and the services. The 5 element acupuncture has sorted so many things out for me too, from digestion and skin issues, to healing quickly strained muscles and tight tendons. Really worth visiting and having a chat with one of the Shifu (teachers) here..!

  I joined UK Shaolin in November 2022 as I needed a new gym and since then have really fallen in love with the place, attending 3-6 days a week. The gym facilities are excellent and the equipment is new and well kept. The whole studio is very clean and tidy and has a very spacious and relaxed atmosphere. I had an awesome PT session with one of the instructors and feel like I’m finally exercising correctly, noticing more change in these few months then ever. They also offer martial arts and yoga classes which compliment my work out. Would highly recommended 👍

  Very good facilities, however the instructor lacked basic Sanda knowledge and was more just there to push students with large amounts or cardio causing students to run to the toilets to puke.
